3. Basic body biomechanics, soft tissue joint structure.

Conduct some research and discuss the basic biomechanics of the human body, including soft tissue joint structure

The point at which two bones lay adjacent to each other ( without the ability to move) is called a joint.
A) Types of joints are
a.Fibrous joint- Fibrous joint is joined with dense fibrous connective tissue (cranial sutures, distal tibiofibular, and cuboideonavicular joints).
b.Sutures- Sutures are immobile joints in the cranium.
c.Gomphoses-Gomphoses are the immobile joints between the teeth and their sockets in the mandible and maxillae.
d.Syndesmoses-The slightly moveable joints are those of the distal tibiofibular and the cuboideonavicular joints and they are held in place by
interosseous ligaments and are called syndesmosis joints.
B) Cartilages- Cartilaginous joints are a type of joint where the bones are entirely joined by cartilage, either hyaline cartilage or a.Synchondroses-
The primary cartilaginous joints are composed entirely of hyaline cartilage and are known as synchondroses. Eg: the growth plate
b.Symphyses-The secondary cartilaginous joint, also known as symphysis, may involve either hyaline or fibrocartilage which are slightly mobile.
Eg: Intervertebral disc
C) a. Synovial joint- Synovial joints are freely mobile joints in which the articulating surfaces have no direct contact with each other. For example:
Joints of the shoulder, knee, elbow, etc
b. Hinge - Hinge joints are the union of a convex and concave surface
c. Pivot- Pivot joints are joints that allow for a joint to rotate around a single axis. For example the joints on the hand and neck, and allow us to
rotate our hands about our wrist or our head so we can look from side to side.
d. Ball and socket-Ball and socket joints are the types of joints that can be found at the shoulder and hip, which allow humans to swing their arms
and walk freely.
e. Saddle- Saddle joints allow for an intermediate range of motion between a ball and socket joint and a condyloid joint. An example of this is the
thumb, which has a great range of motion but isn't as movable as the shoulder.

f. Plane- Plane joints are sometimes called gliding joints usually associated with the small bones of your wrists and ankles allows for movement
in many directions, hence the flexibility of your wrists.
